"Now Our Worship Sweet is O'er" M. H. Schenk, 1680; M. Loy, tr. Text from: EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN HYMN-BOOK (St. Louis: Concordia Publishing House, 1912), pp. 7-8. 10 7, 8 NOW our worship sweet is o'er-- Singing, praying, teaching, hearing; Let us gladly God adore For His gracious strenght and cheering. Praise our God, who now would save us, For the rich repast He gave us. 2. Now the Blessing cheers our heart, And the service all is ended, Let us joyfully depart,-- Be our souls to God commended. May His Spirit ever guide us, And with all things well provide us. 3. Let our going out be blest, Bless our entrance in like measure; Bless, O Lord, our toil and rest, Bless our bread, our grief and pleasure, Be in death Thy blessing given, And make us blest heirs of heaven. ______________________________________________________________ This text was converted to text format for Project Wittenberg by Christopher M.
